Re: Bent Chassis Repair?
best bet would be to take it to a body shop foe a repair price after you pull out the motor and trans stuff. they will have to see it. IDK how much it might cost or if it can be fixed but the "cracked seal" is basically an RTV type of stuff and thats just like 10 bucks after theyre done pulling the frame. they have cheap power stretcher tools for doing this at harbor freight but IDK if you know how to do such work. you have to have an understanding of engineering so that you can pull the sub-frame back in place without bending some other part of the car. you might need a welder to repair any cracks of fatigue in the sub-frame structure. i would use TIG but MIG would probably not be too bad either. i think i seen those tools at harbor freight for around 100 bucks but like i said, if you dont know what youre doing you could do more damage. i would take it to a body shop if youre not skilled to this degree. good luck
